AT Application in Gateway mode

Legacy Open AT
1

Hi there,

I have Gateway software running on my Fastrack Xtend. It is nicely bridging ethernet devices and GPRS. Now I have a requirement to write another thread that periodically sends a message out to a server. With Gateway application doing WIP_NET_OPT_IP_FORWARD=TRUE, my app thread is not able to connect outside. Here is my app thread code:

	socket = wip_TCPClientCreate( 	MY_SERVER_ADDR,
							MY_SERVER_PORT,
                                                            sendServerUpdate,
							(void*) 0 );

static void sendServerUpdate( wip_event_t *ev, void *ctx) {

switch( ev->kind) {

case WIP_CEV_OPEN: {
	wip_debug ( "WIP_CEV_OPEN - Connection established successfully.\n");
	break;
}

case WIP_CEV_READ: {
	int nread;
	wip_debug ( "WIP_CEV_READ - Some data arrived\n");
	nread = wip_read( .....);
	break;
}

/* Just after the connection was open,
 * and when it is able again to send more data after it has been saturated
 * with data to send, it receives an event [WIP_CEV_WRITE]. */
case WIP_CEV_WRITE: {
	int snd_offset = 0; //(int) ctx;
	int nwrite;
	wip_debug("WIP_CEV_WRITE - Can send more data. offset=%d\n", snd_offset);
            ...
            wip_write(........);
            ....
	break;
}

case WIP_CEV_ERROR: {
	wip_debug( "WIP_CEV_ERROR - Error %i on socket. Closing.\n",
			ev->content.error.errnum);
	wip_setCtx( ev->channel, (void*) 0);
	wip_close( ev->channel);
	break;
}

case WIP_CEV_PEER_CLOSE: {
	wip_setCtx( ev->channel, (void*) 0);
	wip_close( ev->channel);

	socket = NULL;
	break;
}

default: {
	wip_debug( "default case %d\n", ev->kind);
}

}

I tried using TCPClientCreateOpts too with ‘WIP_COPT_ADDR’ option without any success. Can someone tell me how I can write an AT app to coexist with GatewaySample?

Thanks,

Hi,
I think you can trying setting WIP_BOPT_EXTNAT option . This option is provided to allow the application to set a public bearer using wip_bearerSetOpts function. Setting this option to TRUE will mark the interface to public, by default its value is FALSE.
